There was something really interesting in Po Bronson's book - a phrase he wrote, a concept he captured. He referred to "rolling inertia" (I like that phrase) of the career. Its so much easier to keep going along the same path, same direction. You get promotions, you get a better parking space, a better title, better chair for your desk.....

It might even be with different companies. So now there is a new cafeteria, and a new set of acronyms, new reporting mechanisms, maybe even a completely different style of management and culture.

But you are still doing the same damn thing.

But its easy - much easier that changing, no matter how much your inner soul WANTS change, is pining for change.

Then come the crossroads - that point where there is no more forward. Maybe its because of a personal tragedy, whatever the case there is a choice YOU MUST MAKE. Its these choices that define you, so says Mr. Bronson.

Can you create your own crossroad? Remove yourself from your track and find a decision point? Will I do it now?
